- Divided into 3 types. Osteoiditis: irregular ossification of the secondary ossification center can be seen on X-ray films; incomplete tension fractures: irregular widening of the epiphysis line, which is common in baseball pitchers, tennis and gymnasts; complete fractures, divided For the epiphyseal separation and epiphyseal-metaphyseal fracture: the former manifests as a complete separation of the epiphysis; the latter manifests as a large metaphyseal separation with the epiphysis, which is equivalent to Salter-Harris type epiphyseal injury, which is common in older children. For the above-mentioned type 1 and 2 fractures, treat the sick child to rest and suspend the movements that cause injury; for displaced fractures, only open reduction and tension band internal fixation can be used.
- See schematic diagram for local anatomy.
- Incision and reduction of olecranon fractures is suitable for:
- 1. Those with epiphyseal injuries who do not heal.
- 2. A fracture with a fully displaced proximal fold.
- Routine preoperative examination.
- Brachial plexus block anesthesia, supine position, the affected limb is abducted on the operating table, and an inflated tourniquet is placed on the proximal end of the upper arm.
- After ulna olecranon fracture incision and reduction, the elbow joint was straightened at 100 ° and fixed with upper limb plaster support for 2 to 3 weeks, and then replaced with long-arm tubular plaster for 2 to 3 weeks. Functional exercises were started after the plaster was removed.
